Dm
I don’t set alarms
Lately I don’t set alarms
But that’s because of
                                C       F
the ringing that’s happening inside my head
           F
Inside my head
Yeah yeah
Dm
It keeps me safe from harm
At least I tell myself I’m safe from harm
But really it’s probably
              C          F
filling my dreams with dread
So I get out of bed
Yeah yeah
Dm
Yes I’m neurotic I’m obsessed and I know it
Dm
Can’t take vacations in the brain
       C             F
or believe me I'd be on one
Hawaii under warm sun
Yeah yeah

Chorus:
Dm
I think I lost my mind
Don’t worry about me
Happens all the time
         C              F
In the morning I’ll be better
In the morning I’ll be better
Sing it again
Dm
I think I lost my mind
But don’t worry about me
Happens all the time
         C              F
In the morning I’ll be better
Things are only getting better
Sing it again

I tell myself I’ll change
That’s right I tell myself I’ll change
But then I begin to realize
that the problem’s inside my veins
But it’s inside my veins (veins, veins)
Yeah yeah
I swear I'm not insane
Yes most likely not insane
Everybody goes through moments
of losing their clarity
At least I’m never boring
But I've been losing sleep
So call the doctor said, "Take one of these
And call me in the morning"

Chorus:
I think I lost my mind
But don’t worry about me
Happens all the time
In the morning I’ll be better
In the morning I’ll be better
Sing it again
I think I lost my mind
But don’t worry about me
Happens all the time
In the morning I’ll be better
Things are only getting better
Sing it again
Sing it again

Dm
So here’s the question asked
Of all the things you love the people
                                C       F
places from the future to your ancient past
F
Of every one of those which one will
cause you to let it go let it go
Need to crash

Chorus:
Think you lost your mind
Well don't worry about it
Happens all the time
In the morning you’ll be better
Things are only getting better
Sing it again
I think I lost my mind
But don’t worry about me
Happens all the time
In the morning I’ll be better
In the morning I’ll be better
Sing it again
I think I lost my mind
But don’t worry about me
(But that’s because of
the ringing that’s happening inside my head)
Happens all the time
In the morning I’ll be better
(Inside my head)
Things are slowly getting better
Sing it again
